Title: Drive Belts
Post by PJDavis on Aug 24th, 2017, 7:45pm
My 2.3 Ultima decided to chuck it's AC Pump.   I've removed the drive-belt, and the pulley is absolutely goosed on the AC Pump, I could really do with using the car before I fit the new pump.   Is there a drive belt for a non AC car?   If so does anyone have an approximate size?   Presumably I can just 'miss-out' the AC Pump and put the 'other' belt around the remaining pulleys, yes?

Does the pulley turn by hand ? - engine off of course !  
If the compressor has seized but the pulley turns you can remove a small blue or green relay from the Aux fuse box on the passenger side which stops the A/C clutch engaging - remember the A/C comes on by default when you start the engine.
Had this happen on mine some years ago - it ran quite happily till I could get the compressor replaced.

I knew these two would appear with a solution! Thanks  

Looking at the fuse-box diagram it seems that the relay Mike talks about is listed as R24.

Thanks for the replies.   I'll be looking for something about 1755 mm then.   Great.
